***THE OFFICIAL BRACKETOLOGY/NCAA MARCH MADNESS THREAD***

If Houston doesn't have a relatively healthy Sasser by Saturday, it's going to very difficult for them to beat Auburn.

cmon, he wasn't even able to play in the second half. There is literally no chance he is even close to relatively healthy by Saturday. The real question should be whether or not there's a chance he would even be relatively healthy by next weekend's games.

Houston made a HUGE mistake letting him play at all this weekend. Don't know if you've ever done the groin, but it's similar to an ankle or hammy in that it can take weeks and weeks before you can play again and if you try and come back too soon it is very easy to tweak it and then set yourself back a couple weeks in your recovery time.

I would be SHOCKED if he plays even one minute on Saturday.

We had a similar situation a few years back with Jodie Meeks.

It's best to let them rest. Seems to be a very nagging injury.

pretty sure @hawkit3113 groin injury will last an off-season.

What's the prognosis for his anal destruction?

Groin? He didn't hurt his groin ol' boy.

yep, the problem with groins is you literally can not play on it until it is 100% or else you are just gonna tweak it again and set yourself back a week or two.

Maybe it's a little worse in hockey because you take a much wider stride when you skate as opposed to running, but whenever anyone pulled a groin in hockey that person would just be like, see you all in 6 weeks.

Also heard Jamal Shead has a bad knee. Not looking good for them. Sounds like Houston ain't going very far in the tournament this year.

Injuries stink.

 

[dukedevilz]

Injuries stink.

They're depressing. So many "what ifs" over the years. Houston and UCLA might be the ones saying what if after this season.

"what if's" never go away either. We all got them.

"yeah, but"s makes me want to kick someone in the taters.

UVA absolutely beats Furman with Vander Plas. Taking that one to the grave.

I'd think that I'd gotten used to this nervous anxiety by now.

How did he do this year?

 

[thebasketballreasons]

Poor Sean Miller, he’s been broken by Arizona and now he’s been cursed with choke jobs. Xavier looks like it’s going to lose today.

[WojoRising]

Not including Oral Roberts, Duke had 5 Quad 1 wins.

North Carolina didn’t make the tournament.
Iowa Iowa’d. (sorry @hawkit3113)
Virginia lost to a 13 seed.
Xavier is down 10 to a 14 seed.
Miami hasn’t played yet.

Sorry in advance, Miami. Congrats, Tennessee.

 

[bMORE607]

Is that weird looking dude with the hot wife still at USC?

 

[thebasketballreasons]

This game is funny, MSU kept choking on the line while Southern Cal just couldn’t make a shot to take advantage of this.

 

[lurkeraspect84]

I don't like our chances today. Too much weird shit's been going on.


First. I went out a couple of weeks ago and my city-issued trashcan was gone. They replaced it and boom, this morning I go out and it's returned. How in the hell does that happen? These are big trashcans. They don't just disappear and reappear. I looked all over for it. I now have two. I kind of like the new one.

The pet cat got bitten by a snake. Had to go to the vet. (very bad omen).

...and my package actually arrived on time.

We've beaten a bunch of cupcakes. Tennessee is going to run away with it.

I’m expecting it to get embarrassing

 

[asindc]

We got a bunch of teams in on the 7-10 line this year. Wtf are you talking about?

He’s just repeating a lazy narrative.

You now have TWO trash cans for the price of none. I think you’re reading this situation wrong.

Not so fast my friends. Duke is the best team in the tournament and will easily defeat the Volunteers tomorrow.

I hope you’re right, but I don’t see it. It’s two completely opposite scenarios. Duke is going to start seeing talent they previously haven’t, while Kentucky can finally open things up out of the SEC gauntlet. Kentucky -4.5 is the easiest bet of the year, I genuinely believe that.

 

[WojoRising]

Layups at a premium in this game

 

[thebasketballreasons]

Marquette vs Vermont is on, will it be another Shaka Smart epic choke we will be witnessing?

 

[della]

Xavier and KSU is a thriller.

 

[bMORE607]

Missed FT's is going to be a horrible storyline for some folks.

Should have cost Xavier

 

[bMORE607]

Probably should have been a foul on Xavier on the rebound, they got lucky

 

[IUBtown]

Is that weird looking dude with the hot wife still at USC?

It's both but pretty sure it's one word, hotwife.

Whew.....I knew Xavier was on upset alert, but it's always nice to see your investments pay off.

Btw, former Iowa post Jack Nunge with the Lebron sequel block late to save the day for the Musketeers.

My cat passed away. Don't even care right now. Good luck guys.

 

[jhmossy]

How did he do this year?

He was pretty solid but battled through a back injury for most of the season. Then hurt his hand before ACC tourney.

 

[WojoRising]

Otzelberger looks like a youth pastor who embezzles church money

 

[ExitFlagger]

The whole state of Iowa has AIDS.

 

[IUfanBorden]

B10 usually gets a lot of teams in , only to flop. League is always over valued.

Tell that to Texas A&M.....15-3 team n the SEC just got dog walked by the 10th place team in the B10.

A UK win is Guaranteed today. Y'all can't lose, so don't worry one bit about it.
